[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi,

I use my mydomain.net for all my private mails.  As such my set of mail
accounts is basically ".*@mydomain.net".  I reserve a couple of addresses
like foo <at> mydomain.net for the local foo club's mailing list, though.
Thus, foo <at> mydomain.net is not one of my emails.

Since Emacs doesn't have regexp look-ahead it's pretty difficult to bend
message-alternative-emails, message-dont-reply-to-names,
gnus-ignored-from-addresses to recognize the above rule.

The attached patches allow the three variables message-alternative-emails,
gnus-ignored-from-addresses and message-dont-reply-to-names to be
predicates.  Thus, I can solve my woes with this simple predicate:

    (defun rasmus/mailp (email)
      (let (case-fold-search)
      ;; rasmus/my-mails is known.
        (and (string-match-p rasmus/my-mails email)
             (not (string-match-p rasmus/ml-mails email)))))

Also, I don't know how changelog works for Gnus now (or whenever it moves
to emacs.git).  Also, I don’t know if the patch should be against gnus.git
or emacs.git.  The attached patches should work with the master branch of
gnus.git.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Looks good.  Do you have FSF copyright assignment papers on file with
the FSF?

Yes I do.  See e.g. commit bb19b229f9c1c32ed8829f14f670bfd9d7ebe2a2 in
emacs.git which uses this email address.

Thanks,
Rasmus

Ok, I've now applied your patches to the trunk.
